A is for AWESOME

For all my lovely followers and guests just popping in, here's a recap:

ELEMENTAL, my YA Space Opera, is going to be published this summer!

WOOHOO!!!

So to kick off the celebrations (if you haven't already figured it out), I'm having a contest! I want to get the word out about my book to as many people as possible, but to do that I need your help!

See that lovely group of pictures over there? You know which one I'm talking about. It's got all the pretty faces. Well, those 128 faces are some of the most awesome followers out there. In fact, they've spoiled me. Spoiled me so much, in fact, that I know this whole blogging experience would be even better with more happy little faces joining them.

If you help me get up to 250 followers by the end of the month, one winner will get...

and

and

AND!

a $50 gift card to B&N or Amazon

BUT!

If you help me get to 300 followers by the end of the month, I'll give the winner AN EXTRA $25, AND I'll draw a second place winner who will get a $25 gift card.

Here's how the point system will work:

+1 for commenting

+2 for becoming a new follower

+1 for posting about the contest on your blog

+1 for tweeting the contest

+1 for posting on facebook

+1 for every person you bring over (person must give you credit in the comments)

Please provide links to the posts and tweets. And PLEASE compile all the points you should get in your comment.

Oh, and as an extra incentive to becoming a follower today...

This is just the first of three major contests I'll be holding. The next one is going to be on Monday (it just might have to do with a certain cover reveal ;) ). And the third is going to blow. your. mind. You DON'T want to miss them.

Good luck! :)

EDIT: If there's a book in that list that you already own, I may be convinced to change it to something else you don't own and really, really want.

Hey, long time no see on this blog! :) I think blogfests are a GREAT way to gain followers; I gained 100+ just with the Crusade. The prizes here are cool! Funny tho, I have Across the Universe and Jenna Fox on my living room table right now to read. :) The other book is on my TBR list.

And hey! very cool new header, nice. I will have to see what I can do to help out on the Followers. Good luck!!

That's AWESOME, congratulations!! Found you from the A-Z Challenge, it sounds like it’s going to be a lot of fun, with maybe with a little bit of stress thrown in!! I’m now following you on GFC and I hope you have a chance to check out my blog!Monicahttp://oldermommystillyummy.blogspot.com/

Wow, it's all so very exciting! Congratulations on your book! That is super AWESOME!! :) I just might have to figure this into my A-Z Challenge as well. I was glancing thru your previous posts and the Maze book sounds really interesting. i have a book club, although we're all adults, but I may suggest reading this next. We're currently reading Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, which is fantastic. Anyway, I will keep checking back. Look forward to seeing what you do with the rest of the alphabet! Nice to meet you!!

Awesome contest :D I'm a new follower, your book sounds cool! Can't go wrong with space and soap operas :)+2 for becoming a new follower+1 for tweeting the contest: http://twitter.com/#!/ramen_addict/status/55060643929276416
